Spindle Operated Potentiometers (9mm) Type PC610 Series Type PC610 Series Characteristics Electrical Tyco specification in polymer technology gives this small single turn Resistance Range: Resistance Values: Resistance Laws available: Resistance Tolerance: End Resistance: Slider Current: Power Rating, Watts: Maximum Working Voltage: Insulation Resistance: Rotational Noise (CRV): Temperature Coefficient: 500 Ohms to 500K Ohms 1,2 and 5 in each decade Linear and Non Linear 20% 2% Nominal 50mA 0.05W 20Vdc or ac RMS, Max. 100 M Ohms Min at 250 Vdc 20 Ohms or 3% whichever is greater 5% potentiometer stability, reliability and long life. For use in industrial and consumer applications, this component offers durability and quality performance and is available with top or side mounting versions with alternative shafts. The PC610 is an ideal component in toys, games, computer brightness and contrast and most suited to similar large volume applications where the completely automated manufacture allows attractive prices to be achieved. The PC610 is often used without a control knob with the splined tip protruding from the facia. The PC610 is available with or without centre detent.
